Golf Cart Gift with Silhouette

Jeri here with the FotoBella Design Team, and YES, I am still loving my new CAMEO. I find myself wanting to stay home from work just so I can create more projects with it!

If you buy a Silhouette from FotoBella, you will get a 1 month free of downloads from the Silhouette Store. I clearly took advantage of that and have been creating birthday cards and gifts for everyone!

Check out this awesome Golf Cart. It comes with a hole cut out in the center so you can put a golf ball in there.

I found this awesome shop on Etsy that prints on golf balls, so I had this one custom made. Front says 'Happy Birthday Kelly', and the back says 'If you find this ball, hit it better than Kelly did!'

It was so easy to center the top of the golf cart on the mat in the Silhouette Design program so I could get the paper print just perfect!

To fully customize this golf cart, I added 'hill-mobile' vinyl transfer to the front. Easily designed, cut and applied using FotoBella brand Vinyl.

**UPDATE**

Ok, truth... I let the golf cart sit, with the golf ball in it, while I decorated the gift box it would sit on top of. The wheels collapsed!!!

I did not use a thick enough product for the wheels. Knowing the recipient of this gift, he will probably keep the ball sitting in the cart, so I needed to make the wheels stronger!!

I cut larger circles out of cardboard and spray painted them black. My husband wanted to 'bling' up the wheels, so we easily designed these rims in the Silhouette Studio, sized them and printed them on metallic silver paper.

I grabbed a standard white gift box, spray painted it green, created a sand pit and glued on some grass.

Inside the gift box is a tee shirt that said "Talk Birdie To Me".

Here is the finished gift!

Totally thoughtful and heartfelt, with a side of giggles!

I hope you are inspired today!
